If the other option ate those shitty games, then yeah, emulation it is.

Enjoyed Jedi Fallen Order. Definitely got my butt kicked towards the end in terms of game difficulty.

That doesn’t bode well for me, i absolutely suck at the combat and i’m determined to finish on the normal difficulty

_____, do gaming w Wouldn't have it any other way

Your machine serves you, not the other way around.

However there is such a thing as budgeting and spending money wisely.

I have a high end machine and I also have emulated GBA games on it. (I also play modern titles)

I do know someone who has a high end osrs machine, not wise spending.

gamermanh,

I emulate GBA games on my beast of a gaming PC if I’m home because that’s the most comfy setup

If I leave, I used to use my hacked PSP and manually synch the files, then it was my hacked Vita and a program that synched them automatically, and now I use retroafch and my steam deck so my files are synched automatically without even having to think about it

Everyone I know who’s just playing emulators is doing so on their phones these days anyway

_____,

I used to use my hacked PSP as well but now instead I RDP if I’m casually gaming. And if I can’t RDP I just take it as a break from gaming.

ByteOnBikes,

Steam Deck absolutely changed my habits. I played more Elden Ring on it than I have my high end gaming PC. It’s just more convenient to turn on a play. Where lately, my gaming PC distracts me with emails, YouTube, random kinks like it can’t see my controller.

I don’t think Ill ever buy a gaming PC anymore and might fully switch to buying Steam Decks every few years.

That’s exactly how that character plays even in c0

Brilliant.

I fell in love with emulating last summer. My one complaint is that multi disc ps1 games ask for disc 2, and no matter how many tutorials i watch on YouTube, i just can’t get it to work…

tacosplease,

I mostly use handheld emulators, so not sure about one’s experience on the computer. In my experience, RetroArch makes it easy enough to swap discs. It’s not obvious how without instructions, but once you find those online it’s not hard to do. Try RetroArch if you have not yet done so.

ChronosTriggerWarning,

I am on retroarch. Did all the steps to put the discs into a single folder. And reading your comment has made me realize i forgot to eject, and load. I’m a major dumb…

tacosplease,

I’m glad you got it working!

He’s posted like 4 games, 3 of which are considerably old and cheap to get on sale. I assume this one is as well. I enjoy his content. Sorry if this is a just a joke

Edit: he’s posted quite a bit more than 4, but a majority of them are still older titles that are inexpensive

Steam Sales are a god send for gaming on a budget

I may have a slight problem with owning to many steam games

My guilty pleasure: 4k TV, 4080 gpu, and I’m playing mother fuckin’ Super Smash Bros Melee.

pivot_root,

Time to add some raytracing?

tigeruppercut,

Did someone say ray tracing?

grrgyle,

Please! I can only replay doom so many times in one year!

qarbone, do games w New Starfield free update added a ground vehicle

Oh boy, can’t wait for modders to dress it up as various star wars speeders. I’m looking forward to play all the star wars mods but i refuse to pay full price for that thing

aesopjah,

this is the biggest disappointment to me. the game wasn’t good enough to justify all the crazy star wars mods that could have been. even lightsabers and speeders won’t make this into a good game unfortunately

I’m more of a Haunter fan.

Is this a meme or are people still playing starfield?

Right now, it’s sitting at on steam charts. It’s still averaging some 6-7k players with peaks of 10k, so yes, people are playing. Less than half of what Skyrim is pulling and roughly half of what FO4 was pulling before the show premiered.

I want a way for my shitty, old computer to emulate a new, kick-ass computer.

Streaming maybe?

variants,

cloud is the future, I got steam-headless on my server and stream games on my phone during lunch breaks. With things like that xbox subscription being more common I think thats how it will go. you just pay a subscription and stream everything

sus,

the future of 50-100 extra milliseconds of input lag

Lepsea,

You should try downloading RAM and SSD, after that you will have enough space for the VGA. My brazilian friend sent me this russian link to where i can download it

model_tar_gz,

Then download a NVIDIA 4090Ti and a 4K x 144Hz screen.

newegg hates this one simple trick.

Tixanou,

Look just hear me out. All you have to do is compress all your RAM into a .zip file, which is inside your RAM. After that, you can fit more stuff in your RAM. Then you can compress that again and again and again…

And you now have infinite RAM!

grrgyle,

Pretend you’re in the 90s?

battery on my steamdeck lasts way longer doing retrodeck things and no internet needed.
